A 5Mp snapper from an old face
Ricoh has today announced a wide angle slimline 5.1 megapixel camera that also boasts a 7.1x optical zoom. The Ricoh Caplio R3 has a 28 - 200 mm 'double retracting' lens, which means it protrudes from the body when switched off, allowing the actual body to measure just 26mm in width. Other features of note include a vibration reduction function which moves the CCD in the opposite direction to counterbalance camera shake, 1cm macro mode and skew correction function which automatically detects trapezoids in images and corrects them as if they were shot from the front.
Ricoh's Caplio R3 offers excellent zoom and quick photo taking opportunities.
Ricoh was one of the first companies to jump into the digital camera market and it's still making decent compacts today.
